Liposuction Of The Thighs

As a problem area for most women, fatty deposits on the inner and outer thighs are extremely resistant to exercise. Resulting from genetics or a high BMI, thighs ridden with fat and cellulite may discourage many women and create an imbalanced body, one that lacks symmetry. With liposuction, your plastic surgeon can alter the shape and appearance of fat in your body. As the most common area for liposuction for patients, the procedure and treated areas can differ based on what your plastic surgeon recommends for you.

Before surgery, your thighs will be marked by your plastic surgeon to dictate which areas fat should be extracted from during liposuction/liposculpture surgery. The types of liposuction commonly used for this area include the super-wet technique, UAL and tumescent liposuction.

Many women know the “thigh rubbing” feeling all too well. You are able to alter the fat in the inner thigh section by getting liposuction in that region. For those who choose to get liposuction, this is the most common area for treatment. The post surgical result should have no irregularity of shape and no lumpiness. The inner knee area is also treated at the same time if the patient requests it to also be altered. Another option is a thigh lift.

Most commonly referred to as “saddle bags” the outer thigh region can also be considered the hips. For many, it’s the defining part of a pear-shaped physique.

Often a result of genetics, it’s almost impossible to spot target this area with exercise. To maintain balance and symmetry in the body, if you are considering outer thigh liposuction, your plastic surgeon may recommend the buttocks and the back of your thighs.
